So I'm thinking through putting together a group to work on Cache Bash V - how does Sep 13 look for everyone this year?

This basically ends the "summer" caching season for most of us, and I 'think' clears the opening seasons for hunting this year. (Someone correct me if I'm off on that one.)

If you've never been to a CAGE Cache Bash before, you really missed a good time - but no worries... you'll have a chance to change that, soon!

This is what a Cache Bash looks like:

************************************************** ******************

TENTATIVE Cache Bash V

The primary purpose is to get together to share stories of our adventures, share caching related activities, and to encourage interested people of learn more about geocaching in Central Arkansas. Of course, we'll have a picnic lunch.

The day will start with registration at 9 AM, with all other events starting at 10 P.M. and again at 1:30We plan on being done at ABOUT 4:30 PM with a few stories and awards for the day!

It was great talking to all the CAGE folks tonight at the "Meet n Greet" tonight.
If you raised your hand to volunteer to help put on this event, please PM me 'here' or on GC.com (savoy)... or just post in this thread.
My next step is to talk to the group (via PM or email) regarding the venue to finish that part up, so we can work on the rest.

SO EXCITED about how this is forming up this year.... take care!

Cool beans!
I was able to meet up with the local person from the USDA for one of the venues... so I think we are about ready to meet and make the final call for the spot we want.

I think there are couple of other names of folks that wanted to help.
W00dduck was one, anyone else remember who all put their hands up? I want to be sure to get their input before we lock down the location - would be nice to make the call some time this week.
